i have a range A1:G1

randomly, it is marked with ‘x’

i want to put a formula in O1 that as long as any cell within A1:F1 contain ‘X’, it will return me ‘X’

and if there’s not ‘X’ at all, it will leave O1 as blank
 

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
Sort by date Sort by votes
How about this?

Code: 
=IF(COUNTIF($A$1:$F$1,"x")>0,"x","")
